Hmmm, time to compare systems
I have it on two systems
FIC PAG 2130 K6-2 500 128M RAM Realtek 8139 eth0 Internet through a P133 running L-M
6.1
Shuttle HOT-591 VIA MVP3 K6-2 400 ^4M RAM Trident 975 AGP OPL-3 based Soundcard
Realtek 8029 running through the same firewall.
I can make the tarball and it works. The RPM doesn't One system uses 7.0-2 (SHuttle)
and the other uses 7.1 ... Both are full development installs with just about every
package. No windows or other systems on them.
Both systems have one hard drive (IBM) running hdparm optimised for UDMA 33, one has
CDRW one had Panasonic PD drive, both have floppies and LS120s
